An unusual low side

While following a diversion coming home this afternoon I dropped the
bike. Not too much damage: a broken brake pedal and some minor engine
scratching, didn't even break any levers this time. Still quite
rideable.

The cause was slightly unusual though, I had run over a Janitor sized
bunch of keys when about to turn right and locked the front wheel
up.

I did better than the proximate cause of the accident though, a
motorcyclist who had rear ended a flat bed lorry at what looked like
quite a reasonable speed.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Mo <mo.childs@gmail.com> saying
something like:

You should have been following something more interesting.

Teach a man to fish and he and his pikey mates will have the
river cleaned out in a day.
